How to reverse type 2 Diabetes

Signs and Symptoms of Type 2 Diabetes
Chances are, your body’s been trying to tell you that you’re not processing insulin that it
needs. You just didn’t know it was a sign of disease, so you treated it as if it was
normal, when it wasn’t.
One of the signs is that you’re thirstier than you were before. This is a subtle sign that’s
easy to overlook because when you feel thirsty, you grab a drink – maybe water, but
possibly sugary sodas or other sweet, caffeinated drinks.
You’ll also need to urinate more often. Again, we accept this as part of life, and usually
overlook the actual frequency of the runs to the bathroom. You might excuse it as you
having a small bladder, without recognizing that your bladder didn’t always act like that.
The problem is, your kidneys are strained because there’s so much extra glucose in
your system, so you have to get rid of the toxins through urination. That makes you
thirstier, so you’re constantly drinking more water.
Blurred vision is a common symptom. With the world so involved in technology on a
regular basis, it’s easy to blame your blurriness on tired eyes, or the strain of the
computer.
Fatigue is a symptom that gets overlooked because in this day and age – who isn’t
tired? We stay up too late, we run too many errands, we work hard – and being tired
just feels normal to us.
Plus, remember that you’ll be waking up to go to the bathroom more often, so you might
think it’s just because of that – you haven’t slept well, so you’re tired and irritable. The
cycle continues.
Continual hunger paired with weight loss is an odd combination. At first, you might think
it sounds great to be able to eat a lot, more often, and yet lose weight. But this is a
dangerous sign that your diabetes is wreaking havoc on your body.
The body is breaking down proteins from your muscles to use as fuel because it
mistakenly believes it’s in starvation mode. So this type of weight loss, while welcomed
in terms of aesthetics, is awful to your health.
You might find it hard to concentrate on anything, or you feel like you have zero interest
in what you’re working on. Again, such a subtle symptom that we accept it as something
completely normal – but it’s actually your diabetes developing in your body.
There are times when you may feel your limbs tingling. If your hands or feet have a
numbing sensation, or you feel like little needles are poking them, it could be a sign of
impending nerve damage frequently caused by diabetes.
